* Major responsibilities fall in manufacturing environment necessitating significant amount of time standing, walking, stooping on a concrete floor.
* Periodically, job demands necessitate climbing on (under, over, etc.) equipment or around facility (roof, boiler room, carbon black distribution system, etc.), where the individual may get excessively dirty and/or be exposed to extreme environmental temperatures.

Time Worked/Hours Worked

* Core hours are 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. - 40+ hours/week. These core hours are necessary to interface with shift and daylight personnel. The operation runs 24 hours/day and sometimes on weekends.
